Ruger grips

Does anyone make a bigger grip to suit the Ruger Blackhawk/Single six/old army Etc ????

I have huge hands and the grips only fill around 2/3 of my hand, they feel really uncomfortable and i have trouble shooting them.
I really want an old army and a BFR revolver (i am told they have the same grips) but i cant find an aftermarket grip that significantly increases the size/length of the grip.

I replaced my gp100 grips with some carbon fibre from Ron at prestige grips in the states. They are a lot thicker than stock hogue and fill my hand nicely. Also a nice balance in texture between the wood and rubber option.
Depends if you want that material or not but could probably ask Ron on diff dimensions as he hand makes them.

Get a nice piece of hardwood and make your own. Plenty of laser engraving places around if you want some sort of texture/stippling/checkering. You've got the originals to work off, mock some up out of pine to fine tune your idea. Wouldn't be too difficult with basic tools.

Could you put in some shims/spacer between the frame and existing grips and smooth up the edges?
